The USCIS has recently announced that a new I-485 form has been published and that all new applicants will need to use the form beginning before March 29. Additionally, the USCIS has announced a change in the location that I-485s are filed. The change in location is meant to facilitate a quicker means by which attorneys and applicants can follow their applications.
Form I-485 is used by foreign nationals who possess (or are applying for) immigrant visas using form I-130 or form I-140. The I-485 allows for foreign nationals to adjust status to lawful permanent residency.
